La Mirage Garden Hotel & Spa

Hibiscus blooming, fountains trickling, peacocks strutting on the gravel walk: visitors to La Mirage Garden Hotel & Spa instantly cross over into a greener, more sumptuous world. It’s a world of canopy beds and rich tapestries, of glass-enclosed gazebos and exquisite gardens. A world where time moves more slowly, and where manicured lawns and statues evoke a bygone era of luxury.

La Mirage Garden Hotel is perched on a hillside in the town of Cotacachi, less than three hours from Quito. A former hacienda, it features an array of opulent rooms, no two of which are alike. But whether you choose a colonial suite decorated in burgundy and gold, or a modern room with hanging curtains and chandeliers, you’ll enjoy garden views, stone fireplaces, and exquisite service that harks back to another century.

The attention to detail extends to La Mirage’s amenities, which include patio and garden restaurants, a full spa, and even a resident female shaman whose healing powers will refresh your body and spirit. When you step into La Mirage, you’ll enter a secret sanctuary of peace, hidden high in the Andes.
